THE  TRUTH  ABOUT  PAINT 


THE  SHERWIN-WILLIAMS  PAINT  (Prepared) 

is  made  for  painting  buildings,  outside  and 
inside.  It  will  do  it  better  and  at  less  cost 
than  any  other  paint  material  known. 

So  much  is  printed  and  said  about  paint 
and  paint  materials,  it’s  difficult  for  anybody 
contemplating  painting  to  determine  what  is 
best  to  use. 

The  principal  fight  is  between  lead  and  oil 
on  the  one  hand,  and  the  great  host  of  brands 
of  prepared  or  mixed  paint  on  the  other. 

The  truth  is  this. 

For  a long  period  of  time  the  best  known 
materials  for  painting  were  lead  and  linseed 
oil.  These  two  articles,  while  they  were  best 
at  the  time,  were  always  felt  to  be  wanting, 
because  it’s  tfell  known  and  admitted  that  lead

alone,  mixed  with  linseed  oil,  quickly  loses 
its  lustre,  powders  up,  and  is  soon  washed 
away. 

After  long  years  of  searching  and  experi- 
menting for  some  means  of  remedying  these 
defects,  it  was  found  that  by  adding  a propor- 
tion of  oxide  of  zinc  to  the  lead,  a harder  and 
more  durable  surface  of  paint  was  obtained. 
The  paint  was  also  of  a better  color,  as  zinc  is 
whiter  than  lead,  and  it  kept  its  lustre  longer. 
In  addition  to  this,  it  covered  more  surface, 
the  zinc  having  greater  spreading  properties 
than  lead.  This  makes  it  more  economical  for 
I the  consumer. 

Now  the  only  question  is,  is  it  better  to 
buy  the  lead,  zinc  and  linseed  oil  and  mix  your 
own  paint,  or  buy  them  prepared.  If  you  can 
trust  the  maker,  it’s  better,  much  better,  to 
buy  them  prepared — ready  for  use.  It  is  not 
I possible  to  mix  paint  in  a small  way  in  a keg, 
with  a stick,  or  by  some  other  crude  method, 

1 and  have  it  equal  to  a paint  thoroughly  mixed 
and  finely  ground  by  machinery.  It’s  machine 
work  against  hand  work.  It’s  guessing  at 
quantities  compared  with  working  on  exact 
formulas.  The  small  buyer  can’t  test  his  ma- 
terials to  make  sure  they  are  pure,  while  the 
large  manufacturer  must  do  so  to  protect  himself. 

The  only  trouble  in  buying  prepared  paint 
is  that  there  are  so  many  inferior  brands  on  the 
market  one  is  apt  to  be  deceived.  The  only

safe  way  is  to  go  by  the  reputation  of  the  maker. 

The  Sherwin-Williams  Co.,  makers  of  The 
Sherwin-Williams  Paint  (prepared)  have  been 
making  paint  for  more  than  twenty-five  years, 
and  today  are  the  largest  paint  makers  in  the 
world.  Our  whole  thought  and  effort  has  been 
to  make  good  paint.  Our  time  has  been  spent 
finding  out  how  to  make  paint  that  would  look 
the  best,  last  the  longest  and  be  most  econom- 
ical. We  are  not  more  interested  in  lead  than 
in  zinc,  nor  in  zinc  than  lead.  We  would  use 
all  lead  if  we  thought  it  would  make  the  best 
paint,  or  all  zinc.  But  we  know  from  knowl- 
edge purchased  by  our  many  years  of  hard 
earned  experience  that  the  two,  combined  to- 
gether in  proper  proportions  with  genuine  lin- 
seed oil,  make  the  best  paint,  and  this  is  how 
5.  W.  P.  is  made.  There  is  no  secret  about  it. 

Avoid  cheap  mixtures  if  you  want  a good 
job,  and  remember  that  in  buying  paint,  the 
cost  by  pound  or  gallon  is  not  the  true  measure 
of  economy.  It’s  the  superior  covering  power, 
as  well  as  its  durability,  that  makes  S.  W.  P. 
cheaper  than  other  paints. 

To  sum  it  all  up,  there  is  no  possible  way  of 
making  a paint  that  is  better  than  S.  W.  P.  You  ’ 11 
be  safe  in  using  it.  Results  are  what  count. 

THE  CHOICE  OF  COLORS. 

IN  the  envelope  on  the  last  sheet  will  be  found  a 
selection  from  the  forty-two  S.  W.  P.  shades,  in- 
cluding white  and  black,  regularly  made.  If  these

sample  colors  do  not  suit  you  ask  the  agent,  whose 
name  appears  on  the  back,  for  a full  color  sheet  show- 
ing all  shades. 

For  painting  White : The  Sherwin-Williams  Gloss 
White  should  be  used  for  outside.  For  inside  work  we 
make  Inside  Varnish  White,  China  Gloss  White  and 
Flat  White. 

If  you  have  any  doubt  as  to  what  color  combination 
to  use  on  your  house,  or  are  too  busy  to  give  the  matter 
proper  attention,  send  us  direct,  or  through  our  nearest 
agent,  a photograph  or  architect’s  elevation  drawing  of 
the  house  or  buildings  to  be  painted.  Our  special  artist 
will  then  send  you  specifications  giving  the  colors  most 
appropriate.  No  charge  whatever  is  made  for  this  work. 


ABOUT  PRIMING 


iHE  importance  of  a correct  priming  coat  is  not 


generally  appreciated.  It  is  the  foundation,  and 
if  that  is  wrong,  no  paint  can  wear  satisfactorily.  Any- 
thing is  not  good  enough  for  priming ; the  very  best  is 
none  too  good. 

The  Sherwin-Williams  Liquid  Primer  is  a 

scientific  under-coating  and  makes  the  best  foundation 
on  which  to  apply  good  paint. 

QUANTITY  REQUIRED. 

TO  ascertain  the  quantity  of  S.  W.  P.  required  for 
two  coats : Measure  the  distance  around  the  build- 
ing, multiply  that  by  the  average  height,  which  will  give 
the  square  feet  of  siding;  divide  that  by  300,  which  will 
give  you  approximately  the  number  of  gallons  of  S.  W.  P. 
to  buy  for  the  body,  then  take  i -8th  to  1-5U1  of  this 
quantity,  which  will  give  you  the  amount  for  the  cornice 
and  other  trimmings ; ascertain  the  square  feet  in  floors 
and  ceilings  of  porches,  then  divide  each,  as  before,  by 
300,  which  will  give  the  quantity  to  buy.  For  an  average 
eight  room  house  about  one  quart  of  paint  will  answer 
for  doors  and  sash.
